Devlog08: Summary of Code and Documentation

Getting ready to improve Missions

Reflection: Making this diagram helped me keep track of what code currently exists. 

Note: The diagrams at the buttom are just there as place holders for next activity. 

Prompt for Claude: 

please summarise briefly the purpose of each script currently in the project files.

Response

Based on the project files, here's a brief summary of each script's purpose:

Core Systems

• GameManager.cs - Main game coordinator managing scene transitions and game modes
• JourneyTracker.cs - Core system tracking player journeys and analyzing graph theory concepts (Walk, Trail, Path, Circuit, Cycle)
• ProgressTracker.cs - Tracks tutorial/mission completion with persistent data storage

Character & Movement included with Assets

• ThirdPersonController.cs - Main character movement and camera control
• StarterAssetsInputs.cs - Input handling (movement, look, jump, sprint)
• BasicRigidBodyPush.cs - Handles pushing physics objects

Character & Movement

• Player.cs - Player implementation for crossing bridges/vertices

Graph Theory Components

• Bridge.cs - Main bridge component handling crossing logic
• BridgeDetector.cs - Detects bridge crossings via triggers
• Vertex.cs - Vertex detection and management
• StartingVertexDetector.cs - Detects initial vertex position

Bridge System Architecture

• IBridge.cs, ICrosser.cs, IBridgeValidator.cs, IPuzzleSystem.cs - Core interfaces
• BridgeEnums.cs - Data structures and enums
• BridgeFactory.cs - Factory pattern for creating bridges
• BridgeValidator.cs - Strategy pattern for bridge validation rules

Tutorial System

• TutorialManager.cs - Main tutorial orchestration
• BaseTutorial.cs - Abstract base for all tutorial types
• WalkTutorial.cs, TrailTutorial.cs, PathTutorial.cs, CircuitTutorial.cs, CycleTutorial.cs - Specific tutorial implementations
• TutorialFactory.cs - Factory for creating tutorials
• TutorialConfig.cs - Tutorial configuration data
• EducationalFeedbackManager.cs - Contextual educational messages during tutorials

Mission System

• LearningMissionsManager.cs - Manages sequential learning missions
• SimpleMissionSystem.cs - Basic mission objectives

UI Systems

• MinimalModeUI.cs - Clean tutorial progression UI with auto-advancement
• ModeSelectionUI.cs - Mode selection between tutorials and missions
• TutorialUIManager.cs - Tutorial-specific UI management
• BridgeUIManager.cs - Bridge crossing UI feedback
• SharedGameUI.cs - Common UI elements
• MainMenuManager.cs - Main menu system

Utilities

• SceneTransition.cs - Scene transitions with fade effects
• JourneyStateResetTester.cs - Testing script for state management validation

The project implements a comprehensive graph theory educational game where students learn about different journey types (walks, trails, paths, circuits, cycles) through interactive bridge-crossing puzzles, with both guided tutorials and mission-based learning modes.
